Neat Ideas - Cupcake Corer - A Review and Tutorial #1

What is going on blogging world?! How are you all on this snow-free sunday afternoon? Very well I hope!

So today from the very long blog title (sorry about that!), I am here to bring you my opinions and how to use "Neat Ideas - Cupcake Corer"(link to their website). I picked this up just before Christmas from my local garden centre for a mere £2.99.

Now I am a big baker, I am always making things, cakes, buns, pasties, pies all sorts, so when I spotted this little tool...how could I resist?

8. Fill up the centre with whatever you fancy - cream, sweets, fruit. I have opted for raspberry jam here and filled it up to the top of the hole. With the cake you removed, cut off the excess part as it will not fit back in the hole with the filling in, just save the top section.

So my thoughts on this are: thank goodness I bought you! I mean, granted it hasn't changed my life, and it hasn't changed the taste of my buns, but it has added to them and made them even better.It is solid plastic, so rips and breakages should be almost impossible - unless you decide to go at it with a sledge hammer! It washes up very easy and it is very small so keeping it in a box/cupboard or drawer should cause no issues.Although it is a cupcake corer essentially, I feel this can have multi-purposes. As the video above the product showed me in the shop, you can core an apple, pineapple and a strawberry for example, have them all in the tube, then push them out and inert a cocktail stick and voila you have a mini fruit kebab, which will go great for any summer parties or picnics you may have.And at £2.99 or £3 the website is retailing it at, even if you don't use if frequently, it is hardly going to break the bank.I give the cupcake corer 10/10 ... it was easy to use, wash, store and there was no issues with using it, it took the cake centre out perfectly and allowed me to put in my filling!I hope this review was of some use to you. Let me know have you used it before? Do you have any baking must haves?Until next time,
